    Now sold
    Hi guys,

    See pictures, i have this 2008 which is an absolute weapon (as you will all know) i will list it here but i was wondering if you could give me the benefit of your collective wisdom with regard to price? I'm thinking £4k. What do you think?

    Just had new starter motor, new clutch starter gear, forks fully serviced with new seals fitted, new R&G crash bungs and new engine bolts of course. 35,368 miles and MOT until Feb 2024 and as i may have mentioned its a beast that is smooth as a cat pissing on silk. Its been a fantastic first blade for me but i have to option of trading up to another one.

    Grateful on your thoughts on the price guys. Just waiting for a £3.75 part to secure the fairing and then it will be up for sale.

    4k is a reasonable price for that year of bike but the mileage might put people off......it would me unless it had a decent service history!

    In comparison I've just picked up a mint RR7 HRC with 16k miles on the clock for 4k..... which im my eyes is the bargain of the century!

    Oh ......i think I've just let the proverbial cat pissing on silk out of the bag!!!:(:D
